Always a tough one. I've always had a dog. The one before my current buddy Elvis lived for 18 years. They are family and when we lose them it hurts a lot. I'm of the school that believes in getting another one as soon as possible.

My favorite saying.

"How ya doin?"

"Just tryin to be the man my dog thinks I am"

So sad to see a friend go like that...

RIP Dali....

space cowboy, Please accept my sympathies. best regards, mike

Sorry to hear that, Maurice.

Thanks all.  

I cannot sleep.  Every time I close my eyes, I can see her being put down.  I stayed in the room with her, holding her as she went.  That was the right thing for the dog.  Not sure that was the right thing for me.  

Space I sure feel for you and I'm very sorry to hear of your loss.

I have a very good friend, Skipper. He is a pomeranian. He's old.
He has been loved and has been very well taken care of.
We can notice his years and it has heightened our concern for his
well being.
Just the thought of him not being around has deep emotion.

The loss of life that we love is the hardest thing in life to live with.
I hope that knowing others care and understand helps you.

Michael
